Are you REAL ID ready?
On May 7, 2025, U.S. travelers must be REAL ID compliant to board domestic flights and access certain federal facilities.
Work and Family Mobility Act
Starting July 2023, eligible residents in Massachusetts can obtain a Standard (Class D or M) driver's license, regardless of immigration status, under the Work and Family Mobility Act.
The RMV will continue to require applicants to prove their identity and date of birth, social security status, and Massachusetts residency. All drivers will still be required to pass a learner's permit exam, vision screening, and a road test.
WMFA only changes identity requirements for Standard (Class D or M) driver's licenses. All Standard driver's licenses will continue to have "NOT FOR FEDERAL ID" printed on the card.
Requirements for other credentials and voter registration remain the same.
